Tripswitch reel

Written by John McSherry and Donal O’Connor and found on their new CD of the same name. Check out a video of them playing this tune on the Kerrywhistle website.

Has anyone managed to decipher the middle bridge bit? Am having trouble figuring it out.

Cheers!

Just an awesome tune John, did you write this?

This is as accurate as I can get it. Note though that John uses a lot of slides in this which gives a distinct flavour to the piece. Check my abc notation to see where the slides; they can’t be shown at present.
